The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

Lucius also saw John and others walking out of the fireplace.

He was stunned for a moment and then said:

"Why did you come back suddenly?"

Upon hearing this, Draco began to tell Lucius about everything they had encountered at Parkinson's Mansion.

After listening, Lucius and Narcissa's expressions became ugly.

"We have actually received news that the ministry has stepped up searches, but we still want to thank you, John. Thank you for coming back to inform us of the news, and thank you for helping the Parkinson family."

Lucius said to John, and then complained, "Alas! The Parkinson family was completely liquidated more than ten years ago. Now everyone in the magic world knows that only orphans and widows are left in the Parkinson family. mother.

I really didn't expect that the Ministry of Magic would want to search their home after everything turned out like this. "

John remained unmoved, his eyes locked on the notebook in Dobby's hand.

From the notebook, he sensed a familiar and powerful magic power.

After carefully sensing it for a while, John finally determined the identity of the notebook - the most critical prop in the second grade of the original book, [Tom Riddle's Diary] that sealed the fragments of Voldemort's soul!

'So, the magic power contained in that thing is so strong, can it be eaten? '

John thought so and swallowed subconsciously.

At the same time, Lucius and others also discovered John's abnormality, came over and asked:

"John, what's wrong with you?"

John came back to his senses, pointed at the diary and said:

"Mr. Malfoy, can you lend me that notebook?"

Lucius looked confused and looked in the direction John pointed.

And when his eyes fell on the diary, his expression instantly became extremely terrifying!

"No! Absolutely not!"

Lucius said loudly.

This startled a few people nearby.

John wasn't too surprised.

This diary was something that Voldemort placed specifically in the Malfoy house. Regardless of various concerns, Lucius was unlikely to give it to him.

"It was my fault, Mr. Malfoy."

John nodded and said.

After that, before Lucius could respond, Draco beside him said with a dissatisfied look on his face:

"Dad! Isn't it just a notebook? Why are you hiding it so tightly? You can't even show it to John?"

Lucius paid no attention to his unfortunate son.

Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. His eyes moved back and forth between the diary and John. After a while, he asked as if he had made up his mind:

"Ye... John, do you know the origin and function of this notebook?"

"I'm just very interested in this kind of notes recently." Faced with Lucius' probing, John shook his head simply and said, "As you know, many ancient notes contain records about his previous term. The master’s cultivation and research experience. This is especially true for notebooks like this that have been collected by you, so I ask for them from you.

But it seems that the things recorded in this notebook are all things that are not suitable for children, right?

For the sake of my physical and mental health, that's why you reject me. "

"Yeah, yeah, John, that's great of you to understand!"

Lucius walked down the steps given by John.

As a result, Narcissa stabbed her in the elbow as soon as she finished speaking.

Only then did he realize, why is this inappropriate for children?

Are you being sarcastic in front of Draco and saying that I'm having sex?

Also, why does this weird way of speaking sound like Severus?

Lucius wanted to refute, but John's words were so perfect that all his excuses sounded like 'there is no 300 taels of silver here'.

Helpless, he could only smile awkwardly and say a few more perfunctory words, and then hurriedly asked Draco, John and others to eat, wash up, and rest early.

He continued to stare at the house elves, sifting through and carrying various prohibited magic items.

What Lucius didn't notice was that just before leaving the living room, John took one last look at the diary.

The moment John's eyes fell on the diary, the [Tom Riddle's Diary] trembled slightly for no reason.

……

At night, the entire Malfoy Manor fell into darkness and silence.

Under the Disillusionment Charm, John returned to the living room with his body almost transparent.

He walked in silence. After wandering around the living room, he reached out and grabbed a snake-shaped metal crest on the top of the fireplace.

As the metal crest was broken and rotated, a stone wall not far away suddenly flipped over, revealing a dark stone path.

John entered the stone path and walked dozens of meters down before arriving at an underground secret room.

This secret room has no light and no other passages. There are about a dozen huge shelves filled with all kinds of dangerous and banned magic items.

Feeling the familiar fluctuation of magic power, John stopped in front of a shelf and picked up the [Tom Riddle's Diary].

If Lucius doesn't show it to him, then he will see it himself.

Anyway, the security level of Malfoy Manor is much lower than that of Hogwarts, and Lucius did not avoid John when carrying prohibited magic items.

Of course, this was a bit rude, after all, the Malfoys were very kind to him.

But there is really one thing that John is eager to verify, and that is - can [Tom Riddle's Diary] be eaten?

The magic power hidden in Voldemort's soul is simply too powerful.

Although it doesn't taste very good, if it can be eaten, it can also bring a huge improvement in John's magic talent.

And according to what John perceives, the amount of improvement will not be worse than that of the Philosopher's Stone!

"call--"

John took a deep breath and turned the page.

As far as the eye can see, everything is blank.

Only on the first page was a name written in faint ink: TM. Riddle.

The next moment, another string of brand-new words slowly emerged.

【Hello. 】

'Um?Are you eager to say hello to me when you first meet?This doesn't seem to fit with Tom Riddle's cautious personality. '

John thought in his mind, without any intention of responding to the other party, but tried to tear the page.

This attempt is doomed to fail.

Because the Horcrux is protected by powerful black magic, it cannot be damaged by ordinary methods.

【? 】

John still ignored it, and then directly stuffed a blank page into his mouth.

As he chewed, the page protected by powerful black magic was chewed to pieces in an instant, and turned into a stream of pure magic power that poured into John's second magic pool!

Then, it was like coal went into the fireplace.

During the violent burning, the magic power turned into another kind of pure power, which suddenly increased John's magic talent by a large margin!

This is the soul power from Voldemort!

It's slightly less powerful than the Voldemort under the trap door, but it tastes better and has more energy!

This also means that this thing is edible!

After eating a whole piece of paper, John's eyes sparkled with greed.

【Are you eating me? !Why? ?Why? ?Why? ?Please do not! !Don't do that! !Please do not……】

Large strings of characters are appearing crazily on the white paper.

The handwriting changed from regular to sloppy, and the doubled '! 'and'? 'They all show the panic in Tom Riddle's heart at this moment.

But at this time, John suppressed his inner appetite, closed the diary and put it back where it belonged.

The Malfoys would go crazy if the diary was taken away now.

Not only that, the possibility of them suspecting John was also very high, after all, there were only a few people in the entire Malfoy Manor.

So the best time to seize the diary is at Hogwarts.

Lucius was planning to throw it into Hogwarts anyway.

After thinking about it, John slowly moved away from the shelf, then whipped out his wand and pressed it against the void in the corner.

Dobby's figure slowly appeared, and the tip of John's staff was currently touching his big head.

"No...don't eat Dobby! Please! Don't..."

He kept begging, tears kept pouring from his big eyes.

"You shouldn't tell anyone what you just saw, right?"

John said coldly.

Even though his figure was almost transparent at the moment, Dobby could still see the deep disgust and murderous intent in John's eyes.

This made Dobby tremble even more, and he said hurriedly:

"Dobby won't tell! The little master said that Master Shafik is also Dobby's master! Dobby will obey Master Shafik's orders! So Dobby will not reveal anything about Master Shafik to anyone, right? The little master and the big master won’t say it either!”

John stared at Dobby for a while in silence.

He really wanted to kill the house elf in front of him.

It wasn't because the other party might complain to Lucius - John didn't care at all. Even if Lucius knew about it, he wouldn't do anything to him. At best, he would just drive him out of Malfoy Manor.

But because of the disgust towards creatures like red hats, goblins and house elves!

But in the end, John let Dobby go and left the secret room in silence.

The moment the wand was withdrawn, Dobby collapsed to the ground.

At the same time, another discussion about [Tom Riddle's Diary] and John was going on in Lucius and Narcissa's bedroom...
